Thanks!   Bread for the World Sunday, September 22 Bake Sale and Letter Writing After worship in the Fireside Room FLC has been a covenant church for Bread for the World, supporting work against hunger by having a bake sale with all donations going to Bread for the World.  We also do an offering of letters to Congress.   Please bring baked goods to be sold on September 22, 2019 and there will also be Tom Elmore's "Marie Antoinette" cake slices for sale to support Bread for the World.    We will also hold an offering of letters on that Sunday.  Please contact Julie Hettig (916) 747-7063 for information. More Information: Bread for the World Sunday is an opportunity for our church to join with others—in thousands of churches across the country—to live out God's vision of a world without hunger. Through prayers for an end to hunger, letters, and phone calls to our nation's leaders, and financial support to Bread of the World, your church can give bold witness to God's justice and mercy in the world. AUBURN COMMUNITY FOOD DRIVE SEPTEMBER 2019 We will once again gather bags of food in the sanctuary that we will deliver to the Auburn Interfaith Food Closet on Sept 23. You may drop your bags off on the next 2 Sundays. Any non-perishable foods are accepted and see the list of most needed items below.  Announcements Sign up sheet in the sanctuary. Congratulations to Julie Hettig. Julie has finished a 2 year program training to be a hospital chaplain. Well done and blessings on your continued ministry, Julie!  All-Conference Meeting, October 6, 5:00 pm Join us at Lutheran Church of the Resurrection, Granite Bay, as our conference gathers to consider those whom we believe have the gifts and graces to serve our synod as Bishop. At this meeting we will be gathering names to submit to the Nominating Committee of our Synod. Come and be heard. For more information, please speak to Pastor Charlane, or Pastor Sarah Johnson, Dean of our Conference:  pastor@lordofmercy.org Governor's Forest Management Task Force  On November 1 at noon, Jennifer Montgomery, Director of the Governor's Forest Management Task Force will speak in the Auburn Library. She will bring us up to date on this new position created by Governor Gavin Newsom in light of all the fires we have had in California. Seeking interest: Would a presentation on financial planning be helpful to you and your family? Please let Pastor Charlane know. Churchwide Assembly August 5-10 the ELCA Churchwide Assembly was held in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. This is the primary decision-making body of our denomination. Over 900 voting members from 65 synods spent the week in prayer, study, and conversation. Some of the major decisions that were made include: Presiding Bishop Elizabeth Eaton was re-elected for a 2nd six-year term, and the ELCA became a Sanctuary denomination, the first in North America to do so. BUT that is not all! Much more was done. Find out all the decisions that were made by reading this document. 3 Reasons to Visit FLC Each week I will publish 3 of the responses that we received from the congregation when we asked for 3 reasons why a new person should visit FLC. An active congregation. Cross age groups/activities. Friendly. Community Peace Love Warm, loving congregation and youth programs. Sermons are innovative and connect to current affairs. Inclusive to all people. Youth Talk MALL EXCURSION UPDATE   Let Stacy Hogsett know if you’ll be coming to our mall excursion on 9/21. We’ll be meeting at the Old Navy in Roseville at 12:30 and venturing to Barnes & Noble or you can join the car pool at noon from FLC. You’ll have $8.00 to use at the food court in the Galleria and you can window shop or bring your own funds for shopping. I’ll be doing early Christmas shopping for stocking stuffers for foster kids! Friends are welcome!   Thanks again, Stacy Sol is seeking donations of Christmas themed, cotton fabric to make stockings again for Placer County foster youth. Ideally, at least 1/4 yard in length. Thanks for supporting youth programming! Questions, ask Stacy. Faith In Action Food, Fun & Friends in the MV Park was a huge success!!
